Jennifer Lopez didnt just want turtle doves or a partridge in a pear tree for Christmas.

The singer came up with her own unique twist on a holiday theme for her familys celebrations this year, telling readers of her On The JLo newsletter on Monday that everything centered around the subject of her new song Hummingbird that Lopez penned for her latest album.

To me, hummingbirds are messengers of love. Theyre very agile can fly forward, backward, and up and down, she wrote.

Theyre also the fastest bird, but they always have time to stop, eat something sweet and smell the roses. I identify with them, but more than anything, whenever I see one, I feel like its a sign from God that everything is going to be OK, she continued.

So, I decided this year that the hummingbird would be a perfect theme, the entertainer added, especially as she spent this Christmas with her new husband, Ben Affleck , and his family. We have blended families, doubled the people, doubled the fun, doubled the love, doubled the presents, and tripled the chaos!!
